This is the amount of money the Bigg Boss 18 winner will receive this season.

Bigg Boss 18 prize money: On Sunday, the winner's trophy will be awarded to one of Rajat Dalal, Vivian Dsena, Karanveer Mehra, Chum Darang, and Avinash Mishra.

The Bigg Boss 18 finale is scheduled for today. The trophy and monetary reward will be awarded to one of the five finalists, who are Rajat Dalal, Vivian Dsena, Karanveer Mehra, Chum Darang, and Avinash Mishra.

How much money is up for grabs?
The cash reward this season is ₹50 lakh, the same amount that stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui won the winner's trophy on Bigg Boss 17, according to a Mint article. Furthermore, this season's trophy has an all-gold design that complements the Bigg Boss house's décor.

Over the years, cash prizes
But throughout the years and the 18 seasons of the well-liked reality show, the monetary reward has changed. Actor Rahul Roy, MTV Roadies 6 winner Ashutosh Sharma, actors Vindu Dara Singh, Shweta Tiwari, and Juhi Parmar all won the most money, which was ₹1 crore, in the first five seasons.

After declining in season six, the prize money has mostly changed in each subsequent season. When actor Gautam Gulati earned ₹25 lakh in season 8, it was at its lowest. Actor Dipika Kakkar won ₹30 lakh on Bigg Boss 12, and the late Sidharth Shukla won ₹50 lakh on Bigg Boss 13. Then, in Bigg Boss 15, Tejaswi Prakash won ₹40 lakh.

But across all seasons, guest contestants have been known to make far more money. Pamela Anderson, a Canadian actor, reportedly made ₹2.5 crore for a three-day appearance on Bigg Boss 4. On Bigg Boss 15, actor Rimi Sen earned ₹2 crore per week. For their captivating appearances on Bigg Boss 4 and 12, respectively, wrestler The Great Khali and cricket player Sreesanth were given ₹50 lakh.

Today, January 19, at 9:30 p.m., Colors TV and JioCinema will both broadcast the Bigg Boss 18 finale. It's expected that the winner will be revealed after midnight.
